Exciting start. Extraordinary return.

Alumni achievement is one of the strongest measures of MCC student success. These former students have gone on to contribute to society as judges, government leaders, teachers, health professionals, education administrators, authors, coaches, professional athletes, financial executives and Olympic competitors.

I would have not gotten into USC if I had not stepped back and received the benefits of the building blocks at MCC. That education not only helped my career, but I learned … so much that has helped me.

I decided to attend MCC because I knew MCC basketball was a great program and Coach Ballard was an excellent coach. MCC helped me become more focused on my goals and helped me in so many ways with the workload at Columbia.
